List three pros about ipad waiters/waitress:
It would improve customer satisfaction, the accuracy of the order, and you can pay for your meal right from the table.
List three cons about this idea:
People wouldn't be as social with the waiter/waitress, there could be technical problems with the ipad, and an ipad for every table would cost a lot of money.
List one pro from another person: You can order whenever you're ready.
List one con from another person: Your credit card information security might be at risk.
How do you think this technology will change food service?
This technology might change the way we eat at restaurants. It could change the way we interact. It could make sure that every order is accurate, and every customer is satisfied.
It could help people who need help walking. It can provide the necessary exercise equipment for astronauts without taking up too much room. It only weighs 57 pounds.
List three cons about this robotic suit.
The cost of the suit is probably very high, if the suit broke- then it would be harder and more expensive to fix, and the suit is slightly uncomfortable to wear.
Do you think that this technology will make a difference in the world? Why or Why not?
I think it will make a very big difference, because it could help on the ISS, and it could help people with paraplegia, and just people who need physical therapy.
It would leave the passenger feeling weightless for up to 8 seconds, the roller coaster could be used for NASA training, and it would encourage kids to learn more about gravity.
List three cons about the roller coaster:
It would cost $50 million (instead of the regular roller coaster price: around $30 million), it would be really hard to fix if it broke down, and if it broke- the ride could be slightly dangerous.
List one pro from another person: The astronauts can be better prepared for the weightlessness in space.
List one con from another person: Only certain people (healthy people) could ride the coaster, if a person had a medical condition it could prevent them form riding the roller coaster.

List three pros about this robot. This robot could be used to carry things into dangerous situations, it could help people who have trouble walking, and it can walk over almost any terrain.
List three cons about this robot. This robot is very slow when going up a steep hill, it doesn't look like it can carry a lot of weight, and it looks like even though it can't trip and fall over- it could still be damaged and this would be expensive to fix.
List one pro from another person. List one con from another person.
What could this robot be used for in the future? Name 2 practical uses for this technology. It could be used in physical rehab- to help people who have trouble walking, and it could carry things into dangerous terrains.
List three pros about discovering new planets similar to earth: If Earth becomes over populated or runs out of necessary resources then we could always go to the larger Earth. There might be life on this new planet, and this new "super-Earth" is actually kind of close by.
List three cons about discovering new planets similar to earth: There might already be life on this planet, there could be something bad on the planet that we can't see (that could prevent habitation) [like maybe the whole planet is covered in volcanoes or something really bad like that], and it only takes 28 days to orbit around it neighboring star (it's sun) so I don't know what that would do to the weather and the seasons.

Choose one movie/link from above that you want to write about. Which one did you choose? #2- the iPad waiter/waitress
How will this technology impact our society and/or environment? If a lot of restaurants start using this technology, society or the future generation might lose important social skills. We are already surrounded by technology, and this would just add on to the pile.
Are you for the new technology or against it? Explain why? (2-3 sentences) I'm for it... but I don't want every restaurant I go to to have this. It would make orders more accurate, but it would also take away jobs. It
